Which of the following is not true about the total lunar eclipse?

✓
A lunar eclipse can occur on a new moon and full moon day
B
The lunar eclipse would occur roughly every month, if the orbits of earth and moon were perfectly coplanar
C
The moon appears red during the eclipse because the blue light is absorbed in earth's atmosphere and red is transmitted
D
A lunar eclipse can occur only on a full moon day

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

A lunar eclipse can occur on a new moon and full moon day

a
